Signposts of the Supernatural - Peter Berger's Rumor of Angels
Details
Peter L. Berger, in A Rumor of Angels (1969), challenges the idea that modern society has eliminated the need for faith. He identifies “signals of transcendence”—ordinary experiences like order, play, hope, damnation, and humor—that point beyond the material world to a deeper reality. These everyday hints serve as “rumors of angels,” suggesting that human life is inherently open to the transcendent.
We will discuss his stance and examine the ideas and impacts this belief has on our lives. The link below previews Berger's evidence of transcendence, feel free to review and let's discuss over a beer/coffee and food!
